Details

When writing a posting/mail (plain text), you use sometimes designations like *
or / or _ in order to emphasize some textparts.
If there will be a link in that marked textareas, these links won't be displayed
as links. They will be interpreted as text - you can't click on them.

eg.: *test http://www.abcdefghijk.de test*

We discussed this before in another bug, but I can't find it.

IIRC, I did this intentional to prevent bad things to happen internally in the
recognizer, like the generated HTML source to be treated as plaintext and other
mess-ups. WONTFIX.
